Molecular gas in low-metallicity starburst galaxies: Scaling relations and the CO-to-H conversion factor
Ricardo Amorín, C. Muñoz-Tuñón, J. A. L. Aguerri +1
We study the molecular content and the star formation efficiency of 21 Blue Compact Dwarfs (BCDs). We present CO(1-0) and (2-1) observations, further supplemented with additional C…
Evidence for a chemically differentiated outflow in Mrk 231
J. E. Lindberg, S. Aalto, S. Muller +7
Aims: Our goal is to study the chemical composition of the outflows of active galactic nuclei and starburst galaxies. Methods: We obtained high-resolution interferometric observati…
The Musca cloud: A 6 pc-long velocity-coherent, sonic filament
A. Hacar, J. Kainulainen, M. Tafalla +2
Filaments play a central role in the molecular clouds' evolution, but their internal dynamical properties remain poorly characterized. To further explore the physical state of thes…
Local Magnetic Field Role in Star Formation
Patrick M. Koch, Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho +14
We highlight distinct and systematic observational features of magnetic field morphologies in polarized submm dust continuum. We illustrate this with specific examples and show sta…
A precessing molecular jet signaling an obscured, growing supermassive black hole in NGC1377?
S. Aalto, F. Costagliola, S. Muller +11
With high resolution (0."25 x 0."18) ALMA CO 3-2 observations of the nearby (D=21 Mpc, 1"=102 pc), extremely radio-quiet galaxy NGC1377, we have discovered a high-velocity, very co…
Dense Gas Fraction and Star Formation Efficiency Variations in the Antennae Galaxies
Frank Bigiel, Adam K. Leroy, Leo Blitz +5
We use the CARMA millimeter interferometer to map the Antennae Galaxies (NGC4038/39), tracing the bulk of the molecular gas via the 12CO(1-0) line and denser molecular gas via the…
